, 1 What is Strategy?
1.1 The definition of strategy
The choice of a future for the organization and of a way to reach that future, understood as
the framework that coordinates, unifies and integrates the company’s decisions and actions
and positions a business in an industry to generate superior financial returns over the long
run.
= THE SMALLEST SET OF CHOICES TO OPTIMALLY GUIDE OR FORCE OTHER
CHOICES.
1.2 The target of a strategy
The end goal of strategy is to be successful over the long term. A company is successful
when it creates and captures economic value.
1.3 Strategy Statement
There are three critical components of a good strategy statement, and executives should
be crystal clear about them.
1.3.1 The Objective
Any strategy statement should begin with a definition of the ends that the strategy is
designed to achieve. “If you don’t know where you are going, any road will lead you there”.
The objective should be specific, measurable and time bound. It should also be a single
goal.
1.3.2 The Scope
It is also crucial to define the scope or domain of the business. We try to answer the
following question: ‘What’s the part of the landscape in which the firm will operate?’. Some
question that a restaurant should answer; sit-down or quick service, casual or upscale
environment, French food or Mexican food, ....
A firm’s scope encompasses three dimensions: customer or offering, geographic location
and vertical integration. The three dimensions may vary in relevance. Vertical integration
refers to a business strategy where a company controls multiple stages of the production
or distribution process within its industry.
1.3.3 The “Competitive” Advantage
Your competitive advantage is of essence for your strategy as
well. What your business will do differently from or better than
others define the all-important means by which you will achieve
your stated objective. This advantage has complementary
external and internal components: Why should the target
customer buy your product above all the alternatives? And how
must internal activities be aligned so that only your firm can deliver
that value preposition?
Advantage is the most critical aspect of a strategy statement.
We could use the Value Preposition to identify our competitive
advantage.
